Rollerblading for skiing in the offseason + recommendations?
Heya
I am 169cm tall, 58kg with 24.5cm long and 9-9.5cm wide feet (so narrow-to-avarage).
I am looking for blades that will enable me to maintain my skiing conditioning.
Particularly, I'm interested in learning tricks, jumps, and rails (mainly to help me battle the mental barrier when approaching obstacles), and in practicing my shins-forward stance and initiating movements from the feet/ankles.
My questions were:
- Will freestyle inline rollerblading help me with my skiing? Will it only aid freestyle skiing? Will it benefit general skiing and edge awareness? Or will it be useless in terms of skiing benefits? I am not as interested in rollerskis but open to your opinions and advice regarding them too.
- Will it be a mistake to go directly for anti-rocker blades?
Currently i have the following models in mind. Are any suitable? Would you recommend something else?
- M12 LO Buio Team Aggressive Inline Skates
- M12 LO Plus Aggressive Inline Skates
- Aeon 60 Black Aggressive Skates
- 5TH ELEMENT BUIO
- UFR STREET
- Mesmer Throne Dominic Bruce Pro
Thank you <3
